SI2-SSI: A Productive and Accessible Development Workbench for HPC Applications Using the Eclipse Parallel Tools Platform

随着超级计算机变得越来越强大，它们也变得越来越复杂。为了充分利用这些超级计算机的强大功能，在这些超级计算机上运行的科学应用程序必须变得更加复杂，并且必须利用更多的处理核心。即使是那些擅长优化这些应用程序的人也很快被淹没了。HPC应用程序开发（W-HPC）项目正在改变这些专家开发、调试、优化和运行其应用程序的方式。通过使用Eclipse平台，W-HPC提供了一种强大且可移植的方式来管理计算科学和工程代码开发，适用于一系列研究学科。W-HPC还包括一个有针对性的教育和推广计划，包括对少数民族服务机构的推广，这些机构将培训新用户，解释使用基于以太网的工具的优势，并鼓励用户参与新工具的开发。下一代千万亿次系统将在解决重大挑战问题时为科学界提供前所未有的力量。然而，为了利用巨大的潜在性能改进，随着项目变得多机构和多学科，应用程序的规模和复杂性将大幅增加。HPC Applications项目正在改变社区开发、调试、优化和运行其应用程序的方式。作为项目的一部分，Eclipse并行工具平台（Eclipse PTP）正在得到增强。Eclipse PTP提供了一个开源、健壮、可移植和可持续的开发环境，适合与各种科学代码一起使用。有针对性的教育和外联活动也是该项目的一部分。他们将培训新用户，解释使用基于网络的工具的优点，并鼓励用户参与新工具的开发。

As supercomputers become more powerful, they become more complex. In order to take advantage of the increased power, scientific applications that run on these supercomputers will have to become more complex and will have to take advantage of more processing cores. Even those who are expert at optimizing these applications are quickly being overwhelmed. The Workbench for HPC Applications (W-HPC) project is transforming the way these experts develop, debug, optimize, and run their applications. Using the Eclipse platform, W-HPC provides a robust and portable way to manage computational science and engineering code development for a range of research disciplines. W-HPC also includes a targeted education and outreach program including outreach to minority-serving institutions that will train new users, explain the advantages of using Eclipse-based tools, and encourage users participate in the development of new tools.The next generation of petascale systems will give unprecedented power to the scientific community as they tackle grand challenge problems. However, in order to take advantage of the huge potential performance improvements, application size and complexity will increase substantially as projects become multi-institutional and multi-disciplinary. The Workbench for HPC Applications project is transforming the way the community develops, debugs, optimizes, and runs its applications. As part of the project, the Eclipse Parallel Tools Platform (Eclipse PTP) is being enhanced. Eclipse PTP provides an open source, robust, portable, and sustainable development environment suitable for use with a broad range of scientific codes. Targeted education and outreach activities are also part of the project. They will train new users, explain the advantages of using Eclipse-based tools, and encourage users participate in the development of new tools.
